Whether it be walking or climbing, Dan likes to get off the beaten path, seeking out areas which offer a variety of different experiences and terrain; from local crags to 4000m peaks in the Alps and beyond.

Having had experience as a youth worker, community sports development officer and more recently, a freelance outdoor instructor, Dan is continuing to expand his skills and experience.
